It is possible, as long as you soak it first for at least half an hour with the right amount to of water, as you were going to cook it in the pot on the stove. Second, use a pyrex to cook the rice.

Put your rice and water (twice the amount of water as rice) covered in the microwave. Cook on high until boiling and drop the temperature back to about low for approximately 15 minutes. Test it and see if it needs more time. Microwave heat varies.
